Irish post rockers God Is An Astronaut created a magnificent opus with 2005's All Is Violent, All Is Bright. The album offers a series of sweeping musical experiences, while never getting lost in their ever present ambiance. It's a definite challenge to create an album, let alone 4 (to date), without vocals and yet still have the result be so overwhelmingly emotional and moving. God Is An Astronaut do such with astonishing consistency. This trio has a solid following Stateside, but really some more people need to get on this boat. This is an album I just cannot seem to get loud enough... I find myself turning up the volume knob with each pass of the stereo. Neighbors be damned.
